The manuscript containing the story of Beowulf was discovered in England in the l600s. It is written in Old English, the language of the Anglo-Saxon invaders who settled in England between A . D . 450 and 600. There is some debate about when Beowulf was written and who wrote it.
There is more than one king in Beowulf. The King of the Danes is Hrothgar: Hrothgar is a good king. He lives in the Kingdom that Grendel is terrorizing. He is noble, but is unâ¦able to fight. Therefore he calls Beowulf, to whom he is a father figure. He is the symbol of what type of king Beowulf becomes.
